  Hi,

  I am trying to create a paypal button, and I want it to look like this
  That is a screenshot of how the button is suppose to look like when I created in through Paypal. It is a drop down menu of the four options, just the way I want.

  However, when I put the code into my wordpress website, this is what it looks like…

  I contacted paypal support and we double checked that the code was working properly, which it was. So why doesn’t wordpress read this code properly?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The blog you specified at http://www.pokerprofession.net does not appear to be hosted at WordPress.com.

  This support forum is for blogs hosted at WordPress.com. If your question is about a self-hosted WordPress blog then you’ll find help at the WordPress.org forums.

  If you don’t understand the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, you may find this information helpful.

  If you forgot to include a link to your blog, you can reply and include it below. It’ll help people to answer your question.

  I get my hosting through Bluehost, but I created my website with WordPress.

  What you want and what you are allowed to have on a free hosted WordPress.com blog may be two different things. No blogger initiated advertising, retailing or reselling the work or products created or services provided by anyone other than yourself is allowed on free hosted wordpress.COM blogs. E-commerce transactions via shopping carts and the like cannot be conducted on free blogs from and being free hosted by wordpress.COM

  The instructions for the unencrypted PayPal donation button that we can use on free hosted WordPress.com blogs > http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/

  You may also want to consider the secure and customizable [contact-forum]. If so please see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

  @studplato
  Please ignore what I posted above as I thought you were asking about a free hosted WordPress.com blog and you aren’t. If you have Bluehost then you have a wordpress.org install. That means you have to register a username account on the top right hand corner of the page I link to and post to the correct support forum for that software. http://wordpress.org/support/
  For clarity please read this > WordPress.com vs WordPress.org > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
